Chapter 1421: None of This Matters to Coco

The world of the late Ming Dynasty, numbered '04' by Coco, happened to be in the Little Ice Age within the scope of China on this timeline. Grain production was reduced year after year, and there was even no harvest at all. Coupled with the years of war, this The life of the Chinese people at that time was truly miserable.

However, the people who are currently under Coco's sphere of influence suddenly find that even if they have money, they can't buy all the food, and suddenly they can buy it all overnight. This is really a strange thing.

You know, now that a separate imperial court has been established in Nanjing, the capital can no longer count on food from the south.

And the west side is within the sphere of influence of the Dashun Army, so there is no need to consider it.

Moreover, in recent years, the Hou Jin Dynasty has frequently invaded, and the land from the capital to Shanhaiguan has basically been abandoned, so there is no food at all.

Before the army had conquered the capital, the capital could still count on food shipped from various places in the south to alleviate the needs of the people in the capital.

But all this could no longer be expected after the Dashun army broke through the capital and forced Emperor Chongzhen to death.

This is basically one thing that anyone who is not a person with a negative IQ can be sure of.

Now that the army has successfully withdrawn from the capital, the new owner has changed to a force known as the 'Destiny's Female Army', and there is also a female doll who has become the emperor.

As the saying goes, when a country is about to perish, there must be monsters.

But no, look at who are on the stage of history now.

Of course, for the people of Shengdou, whether they are female dolls or British masters, the most important thing for them is to be able to get food so as not to starve. This is the most important thing.

However, due to the above-mentioned reasons, there is no grain of food in the capital now. Even the homes of those former Ming Dynasty officials who did not escape from the capital are also faced with a situation where they cannot uncover the pot.

Many pessimistic people believe that if this situation continues, people will eat people before long, and this is not too surprising.

At this time of year, Henan, Ningxia, Xi'an and other places have already experienced this tragic situation a few years ago.

It's just that now it's the people in the capital's turn to face this kind of thing.

Therefore, for a time, there was always a very sad cloud over the capital, and people were also enveloped in an atmosphere of despair.

Most people thought that this was how things would develop.

But suddenly, a large number of grain shops popped up on the streets, and there was plenty of grain for sale in these grain shops, and the prices were extremely cheap and there were many varieties.

Such changes really make the desperate people in the capital unable to believe it.

But no matter what, having food to buy is always a good thing, especially since food is very cheap.

Therefore, after a short period of shock and confusion, the recovered people rushed to the grain stores immediately, took out all their money, and bought as much grain as possible, for fear that they would be late if they left. Can't buy it anymore.

Therefore, for a period of time, people would always see long queues on the streets where the grain shops were located in the capital, and there were even fights over the queues.

Fortunately, Andrew had foreseen that such a problem would arise and made arrangements. A large number of soldiers were deployed in the area where the grain store was located to maintain order. Therefore, fighting only occurred at the beginning, and it never happened again. .

As time went by, people suddenly discovered that the situation they were worried about that the food stores would be sold out never happened.

In this way, after three or four days of people's crazy shopping spree, everything gradually returned to normal.

But with food at home, the originally depressing and desperate atmosphere in the capital disappeared, and people's hearts quickly stabilized.

Needless to say, so many grain stores and so much grain suddenly popped up.

This matter must have something to do with Coco.

Speaking of which, Keke also wanted to thank Li Zicheng, who had been killed.

If this guy hadn't killed a large number of former Ming Dynasty officials when he occupied the capital, so that no one could encourage the people in the capital to cause trouble for Coco, it would be really not that easy for the little guy to control the capital so easily. .

Especially those officials whose families were killed by Li Zicheng, and the properties and shops they left behind all ended up being cheap for the coco who controlled the capital.

Therefore, he mastered a large number of cocoa from mansions and shops, and opened hundreds of grain shops in the capital at one time, selling low-priced grain through these grain shops, and used this method to stabilize people's hearts.

You must know that these days, every owner who can open a grain shop in the capital is backed by high-ranking officials from the DPRK or central government, or they find someone to take charge of the business.

After those guys were killed by Li Zicheng, the grain store in Jincheng was inevitably closed.

So, to a certain extent, Coco really has to thank Li Zicheng.

Because it was Li Zicheng who helped Keke get rid of those 'pests' in the capital, and also left a lot of 'wealth' to Keke, so that the little guy became a 'big landowner' out of thin air as soon as he occupied the capital, and he could easily do it without a bad reputation. Take those 'wealths' in your hands.

Of course, Ke Ke, who has mastered these mansions and shops, has actually done a good thing for the people of the capital, and that is selling food cheaply.

In addition, there are many kinds of food for sale in the hundreds of grain shops opened by Coco, such as soybeans, corn, sweet potatoes, sorghum, and everything else that can be eaten.

Even in the grain shop, Coco opened up an area for selling vegetables, selling all kinds of vegetables at very low prices in this winter season...

Therefore, in this season when there was a shortage of food in various parts of China and even a large number of people starved to death, the people in the capital city did not starve to death for the first time.

The reason for this is mainly because the food sold in the grain shops opened by Coco is too cheap.

In addition, Coco also set up many free porridge stalls inside and outside the capital, and provided them to refugees who fled from the northwest and Henan to the capital three times a day.

And this move also won Coco a lot of people's hearts.

Of course, in Coco's view, doing this is just a casual thing, and it doesn't count at all.

After all, it's not easy for her to get food.

Go to the mysterious store, and you can buy tens of thousands of tons of food with one faith point, and it is Thai fragrant rice.

Food is so cheap in the mysterious store that it is shocking.

Now that Coco has mastered three faith source worlds, she can earn hundreds of thousands of faith points every day. It doesn't matter to her to take out a few or even a dozen faith points to buy food from the mysterious store.

Besides, the little guy doesn't want people to starve to death in the territory she controls.

Because it will make her look incompetent.

Anyway, she is now the emperor.

Although the little guy doesn't know what the emperor is going to do, at least she knows very well that it is a matter of attention to make sure that the people under her jurisdiction have enough food.

Therefore, with the opening of the capital to sell food and the establishment of porridge stalls, the turbulent people in the capital quickly stabilized.

Even the people think that it seems that having a girl as the emperor is not a bad thing.

After all, it is because of this girl emperor that everyone doesn't have to worry about starving now, right?

In fact, the people are very realistic.

They don't care who the emperor is. What they care about most is whether they will be hungry.

As for the scholars who care about these things, and the former Ming Dynasty officials who didn't have time to escape from the capital, after Li Zicheng killed a large number of them, the remaining guys are no longer scary.

In a word, these guys who are still in the capital can't make any big waves at all.

Not to mention, these guys are secretly monitored by Andrew.

If anyone dares to show dissatisfaction with his lady or something discovered by the monitors sent by Andrew, then their fate is death.

Even if the monitors kill these dissatisfied guys, they don't have to report to Andrew at all.

Under such a premise, how can the capital be unstable.

Therefore, the capital and the cities on the Shanhaiguan line controlled by Coco don't have to worry about food problems at all. This alone has left behind the areas controlled by the Dashun Army and the areas controlled by the Southern Ming court.

As for the Later Jin... Coco's next target is them, so there is no need to compare.

The refugees were arranged to start repairing the roads in the capital. Although Coco provided them with porridge for free, Andrew still didn't want these guys to be too idle.

After all, if people are too idle, trouble will arise.

Moreover, Andrew also felt that it was not good to give these guys free food and drink, so he came up with such an idea.

Of course, more importantly, Coco was deeply disgusted with the road conditions in the capital at that time, so it prompted Andrew to come up with such an idea.

Anyway, those refugees were idle anyway, so why not let them find something to do.

Besides, these refugees did not work for nothing, Andrew, the "Great Prime Minister of the Universe", paid them.

There was money for work, and it was not a small amount. They could drink three meals of porridge every day. How could those refugees not accept it? For them, this was simply a good thing that fell from the sky.

Therefore, they burst out with great enthusiasm and enthusiasm one by one.

As the emperor, Coco, while staying in the palace of the former Ming Dynasty emperor, began to slowly introduce some policies that benefit the people under the inspiration of Andrew.

Thanks to Andrew.

Otherwise, how could the naughty child think of these?

Obviously, this is unlikely.
